Nobody had an investment in me, and we were just slipping through the cracks. I was signed with John Hammond and Clive Davis, and then after my first record, Clive Davis was gone and I fell into disfavor for the second record. I talked to Steve Van Zandt today, and he said that there was a real sense that Born to Run could have been it for you as a recording artist.
Here’s the full transcript of that conversation. In November 2005, a couple of hours before going onstage for a show on his solo Devils and Dust tour, Springsteen called Rolling Stone to talk about making Born to Run, which was released August 25th, 1975. With 1975’s Born to Run, a 25-year-old Bruce Springsteen felt like his very life was on the line, which is probably why he drove himself - and the E Street Band - to the brink of breakdown over the tortured months of its creation.
